I am heavy in inverse ETF's (drv, edz, typ) expecting the dow's near term down to be below 9400, and then continuing down from there. I have about 15% in some sort of oil/energy stock. Getting uneasy about the future of oil. I have about 15-20% in commodities, i.e. sugar, and coffee, and planning to add an ETF that includes wheat, corn, and soybeans.

What are the best choices for investment for 2010 and 2011 and a always be willing to sell what you have without developing sticky fingers base on groundless bias. I certainly do not have a crystal ball, but based on the reading and reviews I have done my current allocation is: 25% Precious metals (from the global sovereign debt concerns) 5% Oil/Energy (believing that we have reached peak oil and that prices must go up) 70% Cash or equivalents (in preparation for huge buying opportunites at the low side of the market once the double dip recession seems near a bottom) Martin, you question is the core issue of investing.

I propose that it is directed by Zig Brezinski of the CFR whose Hot Button is "One World Govmt with One Central Bank to control all the world's money. First, BHO must destroy our Sovereignty, then add us to the NA Union and then to the New world Order. Sound like conspiracy? HOW CAN YOU EXPLAIN OUR CURRENT SITUATION, UNLESS IT WAS THRU FOLLOWING SOMEONE'S agenda THAT SEEKS TO DESTROY OUR constitutional GOVERNMENT AND TAKE AWAY OUR FREEDOM. WE HAVE A MUSLEM president WHO IS INTENT ON MAKING US A mUSLEM COUNTRY. I FEAR THAT HE WILL CREATE A SITUATION PRIOR TO NOV. THAT WILL BE AN EXCUSE TO DECLARE marshal Law and give him an excuse to remain in the White House. I pray that I am wrong & would love to hear others opinion. chas. bradley I agree that the Lord is the ultimate answer, but for now, whose agenda are we following? I propose that it is
